英文导读
The University of Liège (ULg)， in Liège， Wallonia， Belgium， is a major public university in the French Community of Belgium. Its official language is French. The university was founded in 1817 by William I of the Netherlands， then King of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands， and by his Minister of Education， Anton Reinhard Falck. The foundation of the university was the result of a long intellectual tradition which dates back to the origins of the Bishopric of Liège. Beginning in the eleventh century， the influence of the prince-bishops of Liège attracted students and prominent scientists and philosophers， such as Petrarch， to study in its libraries. The reputation of its medieval schools gave the city the reputation as a new Athens. A 17 March 1808 decree by Napoleon I concerning the organization of an imperial university indicated Liège as the site of a new academy to be composed of a Faculty of Arts and a Faculty of Science—the first university charter for Liège. Ultimately， Liège owes its university to William I of the Netherlands， who remembered the city"s prestigious legacy of teaching and culture when he decided to establish a new university on Walloon soil. Nearly 200 years later， though settled to some extent in the Sart-Tilman district of Liège， the University of Liège depends on the French community of Belgium. The University is located at the edge of the River Meuse， in the center of "the Island"， the Latin Quarter of Liège.
System： The ULg comprises 9 Faculties including Faculty of Philosophy and Letters； Faculty of Law and Political Science； Faculty of Science； Faculty of Medicine； Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science (Applied Science)； Faculty of Architecture， Building Engineering， Planning and Urbanism； Faculty of Veterinary Medicine； Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech； Faculty of Agronomical Science and Biological Engineering (at the Gembloux campus) ； Faculty of Psychology and Education. 2 Schools includes HEC Management School - University of Liege (Economics， Management & Business Engineering) ； The J. Constant Graduate School of Criminology at Liege. one Institute is The ULg Institute for Social Science (Sociology & Human Sciences).
City show： Liège is a major city and municipality of Belgium located in the province of Liège， of which it is the economic capital， in Wallonia， the French-speaking region of Belgium. The city is situated in the valley of the Meuse River， near Belgium"s eastern borders with the Netherlands and Germany， where the Meuse meets the river Ourthe. The city is well known for its very crowded folk festivals. The 15 August festival is maybe the best known. The population gathers in Outre-Meuse with plenty of tiny pedestrian streets and old yards. Many people come to see the procession but also to drink alcohol and beer， eat cabbage， sausages or pancakes or simply enjoy the atmosphere until the early hours. The Saint Nicholas festival around the 6 December is organized by and for the students of the University； for 24 hours， the students (wearing very dirty lab-coats) are allowed to beg for money for drinking. Liège is renowned for its significant nightlife.
